Random Rants of a Writing Reader

Haha.

Last time I updated this was March 1.

Now it's the 16th.

Oh well.

So figured I should talk about my interests.

Like books and movies.

Um.

Other than that... in the part before the last.

Heh. Heh. Heh.

Aaaaaaanyway.

Just ignore that.

I am a decent Harry Potter fan. Books and movies. House-wise, I'm not solidly sorted. Get a lot of different results. Once a quiz that shows percentages said I was pretty much 25% each. In other quizzes, I have been sorted into each house multiple times, but Hufflepuff the least. Not that I don't like it; I do! I I'm just not as much Hufflepuff as the others I guess. I might have been Ravenclaw'd the most, but barely. A duo-quiz said I was Slitherdor and the accompanying description was pretty decent. In the end, I like them all; and if I were to go, I could probably choose; and my choice would depend on whose there. 

I'm a Percy Jackson fan as well. Whatever. Don't really like ToA series. Nico is my favorite. Don't like Will. And y'all can chill 'bout dat (eww I'm killing myself with this grammar and using the word "eww"). Also Hades is my favorite god, and my favorite book is... uhh... whatever.

But AGHHH! THE MOVIES! KILL ME NOW! EVERYTHING IS WRONG! EVERYTHING,  I TELL YOU! AAARRGGHHH! RIPTIDE IS A STINKIN' CAPPED BALL-POINT PEN, NOT A CLICKER ONE! ANNABETH'S HAIR IS BLONDE! THEY'RE NOT TEENS IN THE BEGINNING! YOU WENT AND MESSED UP ALL THE PROPHECIES! WHY IS DR. THORN IN SEA OF MONSTERS ACTING LIKE A STUPID ANIMAL!?! PLEASE DONT MAKE A MOVIE FOR THE TITAN'S CURSE!!! THE STUPID SEARCH FOR THE PEARLS! YOU CUT THE ARCH!!! WHY IS PERSEPHONE IN THE UNDERWORLD IN SUMMER!!?!!?  YOU MADE LUKE MORE EVIL HOW DARE YOU I LIKED HIS ENDING! AND-

Okay. Okay. Calm down. Breathe. You can do this. You can do this. Just breathe. In... Out. Okay. You're good. 

I'm not apollogizing for that rant though. :)

Moving on.

Lord of the Rings/ The Hobbit. Read books first. Movies are... decent. Harder to keep track of dwarves in the Hobbit movie; also why are there three of them? And I don't appreciate the added characters/relationships/scenes/slightly-edited-story-lines. But not NEARLY as bad as PJO movies.

I have read the I am Number Four books. They're... *frowns*. Well, I don't recommend them, but I know some of you won't care. Language and all that. It's not super bad, like it could be worse, but it's still really bad. The book was okay until page 40, and then it was just a few... blacked-out versions are decent if you skip the JohnxSarah scene (it's just kissing but I skipped it). Book 2 is better 'cause Marina was raised in a Catholic orphanage place, but book 3 is terrible. Anyway, I still read them enough to have favorites, and I can say at first mine was Sam cuz he was a lot like me (space and algebra nerd, but I'm not into aliens), but now it's Adam, and I loved Dust *cries*. Also movie is nothing like the book; really it's an awful comparison, but I don't have the energy to rant (or trust me, I would. Probably. I don't care all that much but when you go and ruin something that much...). I saw, I'm guessing, a filtered version of the movie, and that was the only plus.

I have read and watched the Hunger Games trilogy. Pretty good. Read first. I actually came up with my own tune for "The Hanging Tree" while reading, and when I watched the movie, the actual tune was surprisingly similar, though still considerably different. Movies are pretty good... still prefer books.

I have read and (mostly) watched the Divergent trilogy. Haven't finished watching the 3rd and I don't know if I will. It's... meh. Too much romance. Xxxx xxxx in the end (spoiler).

 I have read the Maze Runner series. It's pretty good. Haven't seen it. Really all of James Dashner's books (that I've read) are good. Since Maze Runner was the first of his series I've read, I'm currently reading 13th Reality. Kinda prefer it, but don't kill me. I like quantum physics.

I have read the Artemis Fowl books. All seven of them. Looking forward to the Twin's series starting next year, and the new movie coming out. I'm REALLY exited, 'cause this movie looks SUPER close to the books in the trailer. But... you never know. It's just, I saw a PJ:LT movie trailer and could tell how off the movie was before I even watched it, and the Artemis Fowl movie trailer looks really good! 

Warriors. You know, the cats. Long live Jayfeather. (I'm either ThunderClan or SkyClan; I think I'm half ShadowClan, ehh whatevs. I have a group of 3 other friends and their clans are Shadow, Wind, and River so I kind of stuck with Thunder by default. If we get someone else who likes ThunderClan, though, I might be moving to the trees. I haven't decided. Also my cat's name is Crystalmist: a good, StarClan-fearing, code-honoring medicine cat: a bit stereotypically kind yet firm, intelligent, but also [a bit excessively] stubborn.)

Hmm.

Lots of variety; but at the same time, not too much.

I think that's good. This part is long enough, anyway.

Au revoir et à bientôt.

PS- I'm learning French. Any tips?
